Tonight my daughters, a classmate, his mother and I attended the Ringling Bros. circus in Washington, DC at the Verizon center. The children had a blast.
The circus is not what I remember it to be from my childhood. As crass as this sounds my favorite memories of the circus from yesteryear is the man being shot out of the cannon and the tigers jumping through the ring of fire. With public consciousness these things are no longer possible. I can not say whether the circus was better then or if it now...all I can say is it is different.
